What are they?
Many patients experience joint pain at some time in their work which may be due to a number of different factors. Common causes of joint pain include: Trauma as a result of acute injury e.g. muscle strain ii. Overuse injury iii. Pain due to hypermobility or laxity of joints iv. Pain secondary to poor posture
Less commonly joint pain may be an indicator of infection or inflammatory conditions such as juvenile arthritis or even an indicator of serious illness such as neoplasm. It is therefore important that the symptoms of joint pain are investigated especially if there is no obvious cause to the parent or child.
